What problem/struggle involve of the story?

The first information the reader gets about Alexander Finch is that his feet are sore. The reader soon learns that the bedsheets that Finch is nervously trying to hide are stolen, along with some other items. Finch is a thief, but that is not his greatest crime. A revolution has taken place and in the New World Order that has followed there is no greater sin and no more inhuman criminal act than obesity. But Finch has had enough. It is time to spark a counter-revolution and put an end to the overweight as the enemy of the people; the symbol of capitalist consumption run amok.
